Summary
Hello and welcome to episode 184 of The Mindful Kind podcast.
I'm getting a little candid on this episode and sharing how I'm putting in an effort to be a more positive person. I tend to find it easy to focus unnecessarily on negative things and I'm trying a few different strategies to try to change that!
Here are my tips for cultivating more positivity:
- Start conversations on positive notes
- Exercise (even when you don't really feel like it)
- Practise gratitude every day and in different ways
- Treat yourself with joyful activities
I'd love to hear your thoughts on this, so please come over to my Facebook: www.facebook.com/rachaelkable or Instagram: www.instagram.com/rachaelkable to let me know!

| 0:32.6 | Hello and welcome to episode 184 of the mindful kind podcast. |
| 0:40.6 | On the previous two episodes of the Mindful Kind, I talked about cognitive distortions and how they can really persuade you into believing |
| 0:45.8 | inaccurate and often negative things. As I was researching these episodes and thinking about |
| 0:52.1 | how they show up in my own life and talking about them |
| 0:55.1 | with my partner deck, I started to realize how much I still tend to think in negative ways or |

| 1:09.9 | or little hiccups in the day, let alone |
| 1:12.5 | big things and harder challenges. Like I can easily feel frustrated when I hang the washing out on the |
| 1:18.2 | line and it rains and everything gets wet. Or I get overwhelmed by the number of emails I need to |
| 1:25.1 | reply to, even when it's really only going to take a solid |
| 1:28.9 | 30 minutes or so to get through the mall. Or if I'm recording my podcast and it starts raining |
| 1:34.3 | and the recording picks up the sound of rain on the tin roof, and I have to stop and redo it, |
| 1:41.0 | that also feels quite frustrating. These are just the little things that I give a lot of |
